12/27/2006 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Dolphins will reportedly start Cleo Lemon at quarterback for Sunday's season-finale against Indianapolis.
The South Florida Sun-Sentinel cited a source as saying Lemon will get the nod ahead of Joey Harrington.
Dolphins head coach Nick Saban said after Monday's 13-10 loss to the New York Jets that both Lemon and Harrington would likely play against the Colts, but he did not specify who would start.
Harrington struggled against the Jets after also having trouble the previous week in a 21-0 loss at Buffalo. He had a 0.0 rating against the Bills and on Christmas night completed just 7-of-15 passes for 42 yards in wet conditions against New York.
After the Dolphins had played six straight quarters without a point, Saban decided to replace Harrington with Lemon to start the second half against the Jets.
Lemon nearly threw an interception on his first series, but settled down and hit on 11-of-16 throws for 104 yards with his first NFL touchdown pass -- a seven-yarder to tight end Randy McMichael that gave Miami a brief 7-3 lead.
Harrington, in his first season with Miami after four years toiling for the Detroit Lions, posted a 5-6 record as the Dolphins' starter after taking over for the injured and ineffective Daunte Culpepper.
The third overall pick of the 2002 draft has completed 57.5 percent of his passes for 2,236 yards with 12 touchdowns and 15 interceptions for the season.
Lemon, in the last two games, has connected on 20-of-30 passes for 202 yards one touchdown and no interceptions.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
